Thank you, Minister.
I would just like to comment that just because a country is democratic doesn't mean it is without human rights violations, and we have examples of that around the world.
But let me get back to this. It was only two years ago, in 2009—maybe three years now—that the Auditor General slammed your government for bringing in huge legislative change to the immigration system without understanding the consequences. We're seeing a similar pattern here. We had just adopted a balanced bill last parliament, not that long ago, and now we're debating changes to the rules yet again. Every time these changes fail to get results.
Where's the plan, and does your department even understand the consequences of these changes?
